AI agents are rapidly becoming a primary interface for how people discover, evaluate, and purchase products. Enabling those products to be listed and paid for directly through agents opens an entirely new - and enormous - commerce channel. New protocols and Shared Payment Tokens provide a secure framework for agent-driven commerce, without exposing payment data or sacrificing user control.
This session walks developers through new protocols enabling agentic commerce as well as machine-to-machine payments, implementing crucial guardrails, and designing checkouts that work for agents. Developers will learn how to enable their agents to transact safely and predictably, handling everything from checkout flows to error scenarios and webhook events.
